| 2025-02-01 |  | | Its better than I had hoped. It takes the time out of having to check through each app myself and conveniently lists them for me. |
| 2025-01-02 |  | | Sorting through hundreds of books. This app is helping me make decisions much more quickly. Hope to engage more features soon. |
| 2024-12-31 |  | | I haven't found a book that wasn't able to be found. Scanning is super easy and accurate buyback pricing and accurate with which app has the highest payout for each book. |
| 2024-12-28 |  | | Used to be great. Now I keep getting white screen of death... This app was initially great. It was really consistent and easy to use. Recently I've been having a lot of issues with it.. it seems 90% of the times I scanned something it I get the white screen of death. This happens mostly with my finger scanner but it also happens when I scan with my phone. I've reached out to the developers via email. Waiting to hear back. Will update review dependent on what they can advise for troubleshooting. |
| 2024-12-11 |  | | Easy scan feature allows you to instantly explore your options and save your books to a virtual library. |
| 2024-12-05 |  | | So far great experience. I do however double scan some books as sometimes they come up as not being sold and then the next scan it will show something. But over all not a super big deal. |
| 2024-11-01 |  | | I love this app my camera was not workable with this program but I put the numbers in easy peasy and it's wonderful |
| 2024-09-28 |  | | I just started using this, but I've been hoping for OCR in a book scanner for as long as I've been selling to World of Books (Ziffit and SellBackYourBook). The fact that this has OCR is amazing, and worth 5 stars by itself. Then it searches a bunch of book buyers at once? Excellent. The only thing left is to offer (for an extra charge of course) the option to ship all of the books to you and have you sort and resell them to the buyers. But that could get hairy. What you offer now is outstanding. |
| 2024-09-27 |  | | Great UI efficient is great help a lot! :) thumbs up from me fr |
| 2024-09-18 |  | | The only thing missing is searching for a title or author. The email list is great but does not show a price. |
